“I wouldn’t put up with anything that would be perceived as intimidating or harassing,” she added, saying that she parted ways with Fox News when her contract with the network wasn’t renewed in June 2015.

Palin spoke out one day after Fox News terminated its relationship with anchor Bill O’Reilly amid sexual harassment allegations. The 2012 Republican vice presidential nominee said women don’t deserve to be harassed — and the network needs to do better at protecting them.

“Corporate culture there obviously has to change. Women don’t deserve it, they should not ever have to put up with any kind of intimidating workspace,” Palin said. “At the same time, if a woman believes she is being intimidated and harassed, she needs to stand up and do something about it, not stick around for a paycheck for years and years and years and then after the fact complain about what she went through.”

“As a strong woman, I say we should feel more empowered than that and we should take a stand and get out of the place or you know, blow the whistle on whoever is the perpetrator doing the bad stuff so that the culture will change,” Palin continued. “But yeah, obviously things are changing quickly at Fox.”

Last July, Fox’s former CEO, Roger Ailes, resigned amid a flurry of sexual harassment lawsuits. On Wednesday, O’Reilly, host of the Fox primetime show “The O’Reilly Factor,” was fired following a cloud of harassment allegations against him.

According to CBS News, O’Reilly will receive $25 million in severance from the network.

Palin has not spoken openly about why her contract was not renewed at Fox. She left the network shortly after she made remarks that appeared to defend Josh Duggar in the midst of his molestation scandal — and was critical of Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly’s interview with him.

In an interview with the Christian Broadcast Network in 2015, she said she was “fired” as a response to “calling somebody out.”

“Some things happened that I haven’t talked about publicly … things like getting canned from a job I really liked, kind of, sort of out of the blue, because I called somebody out,” Palin said. she said. “It was a shock, but more power to Fox News — it’s private enterprise. They can fire somebody for wearing the wrong color of tie that day.”
